Vaggumon, do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?
@Vaggumon@lemm.ee avatar

I pirate cause the companies that produce what I want are greedy shit bags not because of ads.

iHUNTcriminals, (edited ) do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?

It would just bring back street crime and physical boosting and robbery. Same thing for blocking porn… all the creepy 70/80/90s shit would come back…

theKalash,

I really hate ads, too. But I don’t think I would be turning to street crime because of them.

iHUNTcriminals, (edited )

Idk I guess I mean like boosted vendors. In 90s and early 00 I used to go to expos or even certain street vendors and they would have boosted or ripped movies and software.

And in terms of porn I mean sex spots scattered around cities and towns.

theKalash,

But why would this happen because of ads?

I don’t see this direct link between adblockers and being able to pirate stuff.

theKalash, do piracy w If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?

There will always be adblock in some form, it can’t be removed.

But even if it somehow happened, I don’t see how that would affect my pirating. Sure, some torrent sites might be a bit harder to navigate, but that’s just an inconvenience.

hellequin67,

They can remove adblocks all they want.

Private DNS will still exist, there’s at least two that have noads DNS, Mullvad and LibreDNS.

They work in most browser’s/devices etc.

matey,

I believe Proton also has the ability to block ads via DNS.

Onionizer,

That doesn’t work if the ad is served from the same server as the website

And if, a browser will be forked that can still use the extension interface.

You can try a private DNS, easy to set up in Android and blocks ads in most apps and browsers

Libredns

Mullvaddns

can,

Are there downsides to using these?

hellequin67,

None that I can think.

They’re no slower from what I see on daily use and both are privacy focused.

For people who pirate because they can’t afford the increasingly more expensive games, how does the removal of adblocks change anything?

I think they’re talking about ads on download pages making it more difficult to click the correct download button when pirating

Pulp,

Using those sites is just asking for trouble

sovietknuckles,
@sovietknuckles@hexbear.net avatar

Agreed

lol, what? Ad Blocking doesn't protect you from being discovered committing piracy, VPN's do

scrubbles, do games w Controllers with paddles?
!deleted6348 avatar

The Razer Wolverine is by far the best controller I’ve ever purchased. Got it now… 7 years ago and it’s still just an absolute champ. The initial price may scare off some, and the fact that it’s wired, but it’s the best damn controller I’ve ever used.

Flappers are 2 can be mapped to existing buttons (I have mine as up/down on the D-pad), and the other 2 raise/lower sensitivity of the sticks. So I can hold a flapper while sniping to get real precise.

It also has two little toggles on the inside between the bumpers which I have mapped to left/right on the dpad, which is really nice because I don’t have to take my fingers off the sticks, Witcher 3 this is amazing because what’s how you pull out a specific sword.

Cannot recommend more, Razer Wolverine.

Just set up a school.

Pihole

can,

Someday, but I need a device to run that on.

zcd,

You can run it on literally anything including a virtual machine, android tv box, old laptop from the trash…

can,

My current laptop might as well be from the trash lol. I do have old android devices but that seems inefficient especially with battery concerns. I do have an old android tv box I never got working. Maybe that’s something I’ll look into. Thanks.

Pulp,

Revanced has a premium patch for duolingo: revanced.app/patches?s=duolingo

can, (edited )

Oh wow, thank you. Do I need to download an older version of the app? It’s telling me Duolingo is not installed.

Edit: tried downloading from apkmirror

https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/6d642995-775b-4009-be37-ee28c60aeaf2.webp

Do I need to be rooted or can I find another download source?

mustbe3to20signs,

You need to grab the Duolingo APK from a source like APKpure or APKMirror and patch this file.
This is because the installed Duolingo app consists of multiple (split-)APKs.

can, (edited )

The download from apk mirror appears split as well? Maybe I downloaded the wrong one.

Edit there were two version. The patch is broken atm anyway.

ililiililiililiilili,

It appears you’re attempting to patch the installed app. Download the APK and patch that file. Then install the modded APK.

You can download APK here: apkmirror.com/…/duolingo-duolingo-5-120-3-release…

can, (edited )

I think that worked. I had downloaded the split one before. Am I safe to use my existing account?

Spoke too soon. I think the patch is broken. Thank you though.

22rw,

Just created a duolingo account myself to check, the patch is indeed broken :/

did you find any alternative?

can,

Haven’t tried it yet but it’s starting to look like I should open a French school.

22rw,

haha well good luck then, should be the most secure option out there :D

What the heck, I had no idea that Revanced had the ability to patch apps other than Youtube! Thank you for saying so.

Grr_Im_a_Bear,

Thanks for this. Not sure how to save posts so I'm commenting instead.

can,

What app are you using?

ByteWizard,

Hit the three dots, then the star icon to save a post.

ClemaX,

Is yours working? Just tried it and apparently the patch prevents you from logging in. If it does, which version are you using?

22rw,

no version i tried worked so far, it seems the patch is broken for every version.

Hopefully someone will update the patch in the future
